Anthropic logged net loss of over $80B in first half of 2026

Reuters, citing a Wall Street Journal report on Anthropic's draft IPO prospectus, says Anthropic lost over $80 billion in the first half of 2026, up from $13 billion a year earlier. About $72 billion came from accounting charges on financial instruments. Revenue rose to $16.3 billion from $1.1 billion, AI infrastructure spending nearly quadrupled to almost $9 billion, and the company signaled up to $750 billion in compute spending. Reuters could not verify the report. Investors are weighing a valuation near $1.5 trillion, down from about $2 trillion.
